The major issues you have are - reliability of Kutleša's book and my alleged misuse of the Croatian sources? Hopefully, we'll be able to check the latter in a few days. I asked help from other editors who might speak Croatian/Serbian.

Hi Red Rose! I just wanted to say hello. Please let me know what articles you think would be good regarding SRF, Kriya at the Latin wiki. Also I would like to encourage you to examine ]. Translating from that language is very easy for me. (from the Bhagavat Gita, Juan Mascara version:Destroy the doubt that arises in thy heart with the sword of wisdom and arise great warrior arise! )Best regards.--] (]) 03:35, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

:Hello Jondel. Feel free to use what you wish from Misplaced Pages English on these subjects. Thanks for the translation tip, I will definitely look into it. also, interesting quote! Thanks. ] (]) 12:11, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

== Honorifics and salutations ==

I spent some time a while back removing instances of "Sri" from the ''Autobiography'' article. This is an encyclopedia article, not an article by believers for believers. We do not use the honorific "Sri" to prefix names on Misplaced Pages. If the Misplaced Pages article on Yukteshwar is ], that's what we use. We also generally do not prefix names with Mr., Ms., or Dr. Please leave these out. ] (]) 01:16, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

:Thanks - I left this note on the Autobiography talk page - Thank you Yworo for showing me how to better link to a wiki page. In regards to Sri Yukteswar, I remembered that Misplaced Pages doesn't use Sri but the reason I left it in was because that was how Yogananda referred to him in his autobiography. I thought it was appropriate to ''duplicate what the author did.'' I guess not....thanks] (]) 01:23, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
::Nope. We don't use "Sir", "Dr.", "Rev.", "Sri", "Guru", "Sister", "Pope" or any other honorifics (religious or secular, European or Asian in origin). --] &#x007C; ] 20:40, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
:::Thanks Orangemike] (]) 22:53, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

:::An encyclopedia should reflect the reality of usage. Swami Kriyananda is generally not called "Kriyananda", but "Swami Kriyananda". Misplaced Pages should reflect usage, not attempt to mold it. Also, I notice that Swami Vivekananda is still "Swami Vivekananda" here, praise God, and 'Paramahansa' of 'Paramahansa Yogananda' remains. (See also 'Swami Ramakrishnananda', 'Swami Shivananda', etc.) That inconsistency reflects an arbitrary attitude by WP editors, in my opinion. Also, calling a fellow editor a 'vandal' publicly when you have a disagreement is not helpful or professional. ] (]) 18:22, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

::::Swami is an honorific title whereas Paramahansa of Paramahansa Yogananda is his name. Swami or Sri Paramahansa Yogananda would not be appropriate on wikipedia. Perhaps the other pages you mentioned still need to be corrected. Feel free to do so. The reason I wrote vandal is because you took out and disregarded the whole section called Legal Cases and not only removed legitimate third party references and a more neutral tone, but then added POV words and references with at least one external one promoting a particular website outside of wikipedia and changing the name to Controversies which is not a heading used in Misplaced Pages. I noticed another editor pointed it out to you as well. ] (]) 20:47, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

:::: Red Rose 13, you clearly do not understand what a Misplaced Pages 'vandal' or the act of WP 'vandalism' is. You just threw that charge out at an editor that changed the Paramahansa Yogananda page with the last 12 hours. It's completely inappropriate for you to use that term to describe edits that are made in good faith, with careful thought, but with which you disagree. It's basically slander the way you throw it about, in the microcosm of Misplaced Pages. ] (]) 14:21, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

:::::What would you call it then when an editor like yourself, who seems experienced, completely removes a complete section which has '''3 reliable, third party references''' and a '''neutral tone'''. Replaces the section from something 3 years ago (your words - 2010) using the word Controveries as the title (which wikipedia does not use) with POV words and references with one promoting an external website? If what you did is a mistake, then let's let it go as a Good Faith edit? Perhaps it would help you if read the Misplaced Pages guidelines on editing, NPOV, spamming external websites, etc... Also, remember I asked for you to take this to the talk page of the article in discussion, if you want to '''improve''' the section. The person who took out the a in Paramahansa knows the spelling is correct because the title of the page is Paramahansa Yogananda. What would you call it? Intentional disruptiveness? ] (]) 15:14, 26 April 2013 (UTC) Oops Jack B108 - I just noticed you actually took this out from the top of the page - BLP primary sources|date=May 2012 - what would call that? You can request that it be removed but you can't remove it. I just put it back as the article clearly needs many more 3rd party references. ] (]) 15:28, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

== Editions listings ==

Please ''only'' list the first printing of each edition. We don't list every printing or impression, only each ''edition''. I've taken these unneeded listings out before with a comment as to why I removed them, but you keep adding them back. Please stop this. ] (]) 18:42, 21 September 2012 (UTC)

:Sorry, Yworo, I don't remember you saying that but it does make sense and keeps it from being too cluttered. I thank you again for your expert guidance. I am always learning it seems. ] (]) 18:48, 21 September 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading ''']'''. I noticed the description page specifies that this media item is being used under a claim of ], but its use in Misplaced Pages articles fails the ] in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media item could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media item is not replaceable, please:

# Go to ] and edit it to add {{tlx|di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, '''without deleting the original replaceable fair use template'''.
# On ], write the reason why this media item is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, ], or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria.

== Help ==

Let me guess... ]? The article is bad, but it was really worse in the past. Now, if you change too much too soon someone is likely to revert it. I recommend doing it slowly. Change a section, see if anyone disagrees and it remains, move to another one. Eventually we can reach a better page... I will work on the references formatting, and when I see any which shouldn't stand I will remove it. Regards, ] (]) 18:15, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

:thank you! Ok I will wait until you clean up the references. Then I will slowly begin. Have you seen the current cleaned up English version - ] Also, I have been using google translate so may I give you what I have done for your to correct, ok? ] (]) 18:49, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

== Kriya Yoga page ==

Thank you for the clean up and restructuring! There was no option to thank on the history page, so writing on your talk page.

== Paramahansa Yogananda ==

Thank you for your contribution to the above. I recently aligned the dates and spellings of the article, but I notice that you seem to have taken exception to these. Kindly note that the subject is an Indian national and there are no indications that he ever abandoned Indian nationality or took on another. By that token, it seems that American styles are not appropriate to the article as ] and ] would apply to the spellings and dates. Regards, --<small><span style="background-color:#ffffff;border: 1px solid;">]</span></small>] 01:58, 18 August 2014 (UTC)

:Thank you for your contributions to the article but Paramahansa Yogananda moved to the US in 1920 lived in the US for the rest of his life (1952). During that time he became a US citizen. This article was created in American English and punctuation many years ago. Please notice the name of his organization is spelled with a z - realization not realisation. Rather than revert all of your edits, I changed back the ones in the article - please change back the ones you changed in the references. ] (]) 02:27, 18 August 2014 (UTC)

Thank you Joshua! :)

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to COVID-19, broadly construed, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Misplaced Pages’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Misplaced Pages administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

  • adhere to the purposes of Misplaced Pages;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations.
